My personal style as a clinician is humorous, warm, honest, and empathic. I practice from a psychodynamic perspective, grounded in analytic and psychoanalytic theory. My personal passion for psychology centers on exploring the underlying unconscious aspects of the psyche that drive individuals to engage with or retreat from the world. In practice, I am compassionate and collaborative, balancing supportive and expressive techniques as needed to help people recognize patterns of relating, explore their emotional depths, and uncover meaning in their experiences. 

Every person is unique, and the therapeutic encounter is a deeply connected, numinous experience. As a result, psychotherapy is highly individualized to the client. While honoring each person’s individuality, I also recognize that as human beings, we are not so different from one another, and many of our sufferings run in similar veins. I work well with people who are navigating their identity and how it can be expressed in the world, processing early childhood wounds, struggling with religious trauma, understanding neurodivergence, and working through grief and loss. As a former designer, I have a unique insight into the creative experience, which allows me to provide empathy and understanding to creatives struggling to express themselves fully. Mostly, I enjoy sitting with people who are curious and seek to better understand themselves and others.
